W1666, W1685 Dust Collectors

System Grounding
Under some circumstances, static electricity can be generated in dust collection systems and can collect on the plastic ducting surfaces. If this static electricity is discharged through a spark, there is a potential for the dust and oxygen in the ducting to ignite. Therefore, your dust collection system must be grounded one of three ways. First, the ground is achieved by means of using metal ducting throughout the system. All static electricity buildup is carried through the continu ous metal ducting and dissipated through the dust collector impeller housing. Second, for plastic pipe or hose ducting systems, install an uncoated bare copper wire inside the entire length of all ducting. An additional wire must be spiral-wrapped on the outside of all the ducting (see Figure 21). Both wires must be connected to the dust collector impeller housing (see Figure 22) so all static electricity inside and out of the ducting is carried through the wires and dissipated through the dust collector ground. If the system has branches, place wires in the same fashion and connect to the wires on the main pipe/hose with wire nuts. If blast gates are to be used, drill exit and entrance holes on either side of the blast gate to allow wire to be fed out of and into the system (see Figure 23). Third, if you use a combination of metal and plastic ducting, make sure that you use a copper grounding wire to ground all plastic connections with the metal ducting so no part of the ducting is insulated by the plastic.

Test Run
Once assembly is complete and adjustments are done to your satisfaction, you are ready to test run the machine. To test run the dust collector, do these steps: 1. 2. Make sure the paddle switch is pushed in the down or OFF position. Make sure all the dust collection ducting and fasteners are tight, and that no parts or tools will get sucked into the dust collection intake. Plug in the power cord. Flip the START paddle upward and keep your finger poised over the paddle for a quick power kill, just in case there is a problem. The dust collector should run smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing noises. If you hear strange or unusual noises, or a loud vibration exists, turn off the dust collector and wait for all moving parts to stop. Unplug the machine, refer to Troubleshooting on Page 25, and investigate and correct the problem before further operation. If the source of the problem is not an easy fix, contact our Technical Support Department for help at (360)-734-3482 or via techsupport@shopfox.biz.

General

OPERATIONS

Many of these operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed incorrectly. The instructions in this section are written with the understanding that the operator has the necessary knowledge and skills to operate this machine. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing any operation, stop using the machine! If you are an inexperienced operator, we strongly recommend that you read books, trade articles, or seek training from an experienced dust collector operator before performing any unfamiliar operations. Above all, your safety should come first!

Operation
This dust collector is designed for collecting wood dust from woodworking machines. The Model W1666 will draw up to 1550 CFM, and the Model W1685 will draw up to 1280 CFM. The dust collectors are not designed to be used as central whole-house vacuums. Central vacuum systems and woodshop dust collection systems have completely different vacuum pumps and are not interchangeable. For safe operation and the best dust collection results, please follow the rules below: ALWAYS wear a NIOSH approved respirator to help protect yourself from the respiratory dangers caused by the inhalation of fine dust. Dust collectors do not eliminate the fine, and most harmful, dust from the workshop. DO NOT collect metal pieces, glass, or liquid with this dust collector. It is intended for collecting wood dust only (Figure 25). Metal pieces may spark when they contact the impeller and cause a fire. USE a 4" dust collection hose that is as short as possible. Remember, the longer the hose, and the more bends in the ducting, the less CFM your dust collector will draw. LIMIT the use of 90 elbows or 45 elbows. These fittings will decrease the overall efficiency of the dust collector. GROUND your dust collection hose to protect against unpleasant static shock, and in the worst case, an accidental fire. -19-

MAINTENANCE
General
Make a habit of inspecting your dust collector each time you use it to ensure optimum performance. Check for the following conditions and repair or replace when necessary: Worn or damaged switch, switch-safety key, electrical cords and plugs. Loose mounting bolts, loud rubbing, vibration or tapping noises coming from motor or impeller housing. Clogged, frayed, or leaking dust collection bags. Any other condition that can cause an unsafe condition.

MAKE SURE that your machine is unplugged during all maintenance procedures! If this warning is ignored, serious personal injury may occur.

Lubrication
All bearings are sealed and permanently lubricated, no lubrication is required.

Emptying Collected Dust

The lower bag on the dust collector should be emptied when it becomes 23 to 34 full. 1. ALWAYS WEAR A RESPIRATOR WHEN EMPTYING DUST COLLECTION BAGS (see Figure 26). 2. Shake the upper bag and let the dust inside settle for a few minutes. 3. Loosen the latch clamp holding the bag. Emptying the collector bag exposes you to harmful dust. Always wear a respirator and safety goggles when emptying the collector bag!

MAINTENANCE

4. Take the bag off of the collector body and close up the opening. 5. Place a garbage bag over the opening of the collection bag. Invert both bags to empty. 6. Clean or reinstall the bag on the dust collector.

Collector Bag Cleaning

The lower dust storage bag is intended to be cleaned by simply emptying it. Once a year under heavy use, hand wash in cold water with a mild soap, and hang dry only. DO NOT wash bags in a laundry machine or tumble dry. -20Figure 26. Wearing a respirator and safety goggles for personal dust protection.

Accessories
Below are some of the accessories that work well with this dust collector. If you do not have a dealer in your area, these products are also available through online dealers. Please call or e-mail Woodstock International Inc. Customer Service to get a current listing of dealers at: (800)-840-8420 or at sales@shopfox.biz.

This is the perfect accessory for those who will use the dust collector for multiple machines. The quick disconnect is designed to attach to a 4" hose and press-on to any 4" diameter dust port. The quick disconnect works with a friction fit to eliminate constant tightening/loosening hose clamps.

Quick Disconnect (Model W1038)

Universal Adapter (Model W1039)

Providing options for seven different sizes, this universal adapter allows you to connect your dust collector to machines with dust ports smaller than 4". This is a "musthave" for miter saws or when connecting your dust collector to common vacuum hoses.

Remote Switch (Model D3038 110V or Model D3346 220V)

Turn your dust collector ON or OFF from up to 75 feet away. The Model D3038 remote switch controls 110V20A dust collectors up to 11/2 HP, and the Model D3346 remote switch controls 220V-20A dust collectors up to 3 HP.

All dust collectors generate static electricity in the ducting system. If a series of conditions are in place, and the dust collection ducting is not grounded, a spark from static electricity buildup could ignite the fine wood dust particles in the dust collector. To reduce this ignition hazard, install a grounding kit.

Grounding Kit (Model W1053)

Deluxe Ceiling Mounted Air Cleaner (Model W1690)

Air cleaners are a great solution for removing airborne dust particles. This air cleaner has three speeds (556, 702, and 1,044 CFM) and a primary and secondary filter to remove dust particles as small as 2.5 Micron. Install this air cleaner on a work bench, on a wall, or suspend it from your shop ceiling.
